The conservancy is committed to the conservation of wildlife and diverse habitats found in the area. The savannah grassland provides great game viewing opportunities - as good as anywhere in Africa, including endangered species. Lewa Downs has been the family home since 1924 when the Craig family moved from England to begin cattle ranching. Guests have been entertained at Lewa Wilderness, a private home in private paradise, for the last thirty years. The family home accommodates sixteen guests in eight comfortable thatched cottages with en-suite bathrooms, fireplaces and verandahs. The cosy sitting and open air dining room is used for reading, relaxing and eating. Healthy and delicious food is served, with produce from a five acre organic garden and home-raised livestock. In addition to game drives and walks, camel and horse-back safaris can be undertaken.

Offbeat Safaris
Laikipia is a unique wildlife area, with abundant game including several rare species. Offbeat safaris provide riding adventures across remote ranches within the Laikipia plateau. Offbeat has thoroughbred and thoroughbred-cross horses, many home bred and all trained for polo. Rides between campsites vary from 4 to 6 hours a day, with the most riding done in the cooler morning hours. During the heat of the day, the ride stops beside a river or under a canopy of trees, to enjoy a picnic lunch (made by each guest and carried in saddle bags) and rest for a couple of hours, before hacking into a ready made camp in the evening. Not everyday is a ‘moving’ day and on rest days guests can enjoy early morning and evening rides and game drives. Groups have a minimum of 4 and maximum of 12 guests, and set departure trips have either 11-day or 14-day itineraries.
